“Peter Bogdanovichu0026#39;s u0026#39;Sheu0026#39;s Funny That Wayu0026#39; is an entertaining, enjoyable film, thats amongst the best Screwball comedies in recent times. And the terrific ensemble, deliver excellently!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026#39;Sheu0026#39;s Funny That Wayu0026#39; Synopsis: On the set of a playwrightu0026#39;s new project, a love triangle forms between his wife, her ex-lover, and the call girl-turned-actress cast in the production.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026#39;Sheu0026#39;s Funny That Wayu0026#39; is an absurd story, centered around a hooker (Imogen Poots). The series of events she witnesses in this eccentric comedy, is often hilarious. I was in splits when all of its characters came under one roof…its impossible not to laugh at their bizarre personalities. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLouise Stratten u0026amp; Bogdanovichu0026#39;s Screenplay hits the right notes. The only glitch comes in the middle of the way, when the pace dips for a bit, as the Writing loosens. However, things come back on track u0026amp; get funnier as this story comes to an end. Bogdanovichu0026#39;s Direction (Though Very Woody Allen) is skilled. The Legendary Storyteller has handled all the comedic portions, with flourish. Cinematography u0026amp; Editing are superb. Art Design is perfect.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026#39;Sheu0026#39;s Funny That Wayu0026#39; wouldu0026#39;ve been a lesser joyride, if the casting wouldu0026#39;ve been wrong. But, luckily here, everyone is cast right-on! Imogen Poots delivers a knockout performance as the protagonist, enacting the hooker under pressure, to perfection. Owen Wilson is effortlessly convincing, oozing naturalness throughout. Kathryn Hahn is a comedic force. What a performance! Rhys Ifans is as sleazy as it can get, while Will Forte has his moments. Jennifer Aniston is absolutely terrific as the irritated psychiatrist. Austin Pendleton u0026amp; George Morfogen are in fine form, as well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOn the whole, u0026#39;Sheu0026#39;s Funny That Wayu0026#39; gets most of it right. Watch It!”
